DESIGN DEVICE FOR DESIGNING A CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EXAMINING THE TECHNOLOGICAL AIMS WHEN DESIGNING A CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a developer device for designing a control system comprising automation software and automation hardware for the automatic operation of a process. The designing device comprises a design module (10) which is embodied in order to design the automatic software, an engineering module (30) which is connected to the design module (10) in order to receive the automation software, and which is configured in order to project the automation hardware based on the automation software and to produce projection data on the automation hardware, and a simulation module (50) for simulating the automation software and the processes, and which is connected to the engineering module (30) which is used to receive the projection data, in addition to the design module (10) which is used to transfer simulated process data.
